I got the pinion ordered from the lhs. Will be in tomorrow. Gave the motor a test unloaded with a max of about 1/8 throttle. God, it sounds AWESOME! I relocated the MM to behind the motor, and wired up the bec. The way I mounted the bec is a but ghetto, just tie-wrapped it onto the esc power wires. Also, got the front brace mounted, finally. Here's a couple pics:
u may find they were put there for a purpose, to keep stuff out! i was told (on the buggy) that if i didnt add them it would be terrible. and would have stuff all in the chassis.

Ugh... the lhs ordered the wrong size pinion. They ordered a 12t when I asked for a 16t. They can have the 16t in by tuesday, but I was hoping to have it ready for this weekend. I made it VERY clear I wanted a 16t...
And now, the update you've all been waiting for....
I drove the hyper st! Still got to program it, (no brakes) and realign the tires and such. Here's a couple pics. My it got dirty quickly!
My heat gun took a crap, I ran it only for about 15min because I had to pee really bad and had to run up to my house. Anyway, it was basically all 1/2 throttle short hill climbs, and a bit of full throttle wheelie attempts. Even with 5k CD oil, I could wheelie! I'd say temps were as follows; motor: 140, ESC: 150, batteries: 95...
